        RESIGNATION AS MEMBER OF COMMITTEE ON NATURAL RESOURCES

  The SPEAKER pro tempore laid before the House the following 
resignation as a member of the Committee on Natural Resources:

                                    Congress of the United States,


                                     House of Representatives,

                                    Washington, DC, June 15, 2021.
     Hon. Nancy Pelosi,
     Speaker, House of Representatives,
     Washington, DC.
       Dear Speaker Pelosi: I write today to request to be removed 
     from the House Committee on Natural Resources to allow 
     Representative Stansbury to serve on this important 
     committee.
       Representative Stansbury was recently sworn in as a Member 
     of the House of Representatives serving New Mexico's 1st 
     Congressional District. Representative Stansbury is filling 
     the vacancy created when then Representative Haaland was 
     nominated and confirmed to be the United States Secretary of 
     the Interior. Before serving as Secretary of the Interior, 
     former Representative Haaland used her position on the House 
     Committee on Natural Resources to combat the climate crisis 
     and create a more equitable future for her constituents and 
     all Americans. I believe it is important that Representative 
     Stansbury have an opportunity to continue this legacy and 
     represent her constituents in New Mexico's 1st Congressional 
     District on the House Committee on Natural Resources.
       I appreciate your consideration of this request.
           Sincerely,
                                                     Doris Matsui,
                                               Member of Congress.

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Without objection, the resignation is 
accepted.
  There was no objection.
